Spokane Valley, WA : Paintball players was killed by bus crash on Saturday October 12th 2014.

A bus carrying paintball players struck and killed a Washington state man inside a zombie attraction at a corn maze in northern Idaho, authorities said Saturday. Jeremy T. McSpadden Jr., 18, of Spokane Valley, Washington, was a role player in the “Zombie Slayer Paintball Bus” attraction at the Incredible Corn Maze in Hauser on Friday night, the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office said. Dressed as a zombie, he emerged from his hiding place and ran toward the modified school bus, but he tripped and fell in front of the rear passenger-side tires, witnesses reported. “I love you Jeremy McSpadden Jr. always,” the teen’s father, Jeremy McSpadden Sr. wrote in a Facebook post. “You are the reason I wake up, the person I most talked to and spent time with — talked, argued but never fought! We loved each other like only a father and son could. Jeremy [you] are my life and it will forever be empty without you. But my heart is full of your spirit, and I will live my life in honour of you and never forget the good times — [because] there were a lot of them!!! I love you, my best friend, my buddy my son! Love and pride are not big enough words.” I love you, my best friend, my buddy my son! Love and pride are not big enough words McSpadden Jr. was run over and apparently killed instantly. Because of the uneven terrain of the corn maze, the bus frequently rocks, and the occupants did not immediately notice what had happened, investigators said. “It was not until the bus had traveled away from the victim’s location and the role players began to reset for the next bus to come along that anyone realized something was wrong,” the sheriff’s office said in a news release. The attraction is new this season, according to the corn maze’s website. For $15, customers ride the bus, which has paintball guns mounted outside the windows, and shoot at the zombies as the vehicle drives through the corn maze. The bus was going forward, and neither speed nor alcohol was a factor, Sgt. Ward Crawford said. “The focus of the attraction is the bus creeps forward so the customers have plenty of opportunity to blast away at the zombies,” Crawford said. “This looks like it was just a horrific confluence of events.” A recording on the corn maze’s information line Saturday morning said, “We are sad to announce that all of the attractions, including the free drive-in movie, will be canceled for the remainder of the weekend.” Source : Teen dressed as zombie struck and killed by bus full of paintballers at Washington state corn maze
